First up is the YouthWorks brochure. This is the third year I've designed the brochure and it's a fun challenge to come up with a slightly new look and feel each year, while keeping consistent with their brand.

This year we went with more of a graphic look, where in past years, the design was photo centric.

Each year for the past four years, I have worked with the Southwest Initiative Foundation to develop an online version of their annual report, reach with a unique theme and visual presentation. I design the overall look, and the Foundation takes the lead in adding and formatting content. You can view previous annual reports on their web site.

This year's theme was "Just Imagine". The site features a shorter version of a documentary by the same name, developed by the foundation earlier this year.

Wilkie Sanderson is a custom manufacturer of fine wood cabinetry, institutional casegoods, solid surface products and architectural millwork. They were looking a minimalist design that showed off their breadth of experience and clearly communicated the great strengths of this company.

When I first started on this project, they had very little in the way of project photography, so in addition to building their web site, I took much of the photography you see in their "Projects" section. They wisely took the time to get enough quality photography of their projects before launching the site.
